If you’ve retweeted a message, you’ve used a RESTful API. If you’ve searched for data on ESPN, you’ve made a RESTful API call.</p> <p>But what of developers who need to automate this process, to make calls to potentially thousands of RESTful API endpoints?</p> <p>They need documentation. Sure, they can read the code of the people who developed the RESTful APIs, but what they really need are examples. As one of the speakers at the Write The Docs ’14 conference noted, “Developers are people too.”</p> <p>Jody Bleyle and Jennifer Rondeau will give us some insight into RESTful APIs, what they are, how you can interact with them, and what they have done to document their RESTful APIs.</p> <p>They will also show us some options for automating RESTful API documentation.</p> <p>Jennifer and Jody will give us some clues. :)</p> </div> <h3>Links</h3> <ul> <li><a class="url u-url" href="http://www.meetup.com/Write-The-Docs-PDX/events/213214892/">Website</a></li> </ul> </div>
